The Museum hosts a large floristic archive, consisting mainly of the primary material and floristic notes made mainly in the eastern Fennoscandia by Finnish botanists. The records of the Finnish and NW Russian vascular plants have partly been entered into the Museum's floristic database.The copies of the forms used in examining the habitats of the threatened vascular plants of Finland are also partly preserved in this archive. There are also various cardfiles on the collections, correspondance and various papers on certain botanists of the past.
